“NIMBYs” (NIMBY means “not in my back yard”) is the name given to people who oppose the establishment or location of structures or objects on lands around their neighborhood because they consider it to be a nuisance, or unpleasant; however, the same people support the establishment or location of the structures or objects elsewhere, away from their neighborhood.
NIMBY is actually an acronym for the word "not in my back yard"). Nimby occurs when residents oppose specific placement of land usages using nuisance theories and local zoning laws.
In some cases however, the oppositions posed by these NIMBYs can be trashed and silenced through a constitutional process and making the NIMBYs know the usefulness of the proposed development in such areas.
